Why do you need to understand M&A?
• M&A is a powerful growth strategy (for buyers and sellers) that takes significant preparation time to execute well. • You also need to be able to manage the expectations of various stakeholders (your team, your clients, etc.) if you are in an M&A situation. • All decisions drive firm value - understanding M&A helps you position your firm strategically for a high return if you eventually sell, or to be a great buyer! • Record pace of consolidation activity in AEC in 2021 and projected to increase in 2022 - it’s an aspect of our business that requires a strategy.
